Manchester City
Manchester City loaned Correia to Jong AZ for the 2019–20 season. On 23 August 2019, he made his Eerste Divisie debut for Jong AZ against TOP Oss.[3] Correia ended the season with 23 appearances, scoring three goals and providing five assists.[4]
Juventus U23
On 30 June 2020, Juventus agreed to sign Correia on a five-year deal, on a swap deal with Pablo Moreno heading the other way.[4] Correia scored his first goal and made his first assist for Juventus U23 on his Serie C debut, on 28 September 2020, against Pro Sesto, helping his side win 2–1.[5]
Juventus
Senior debut
Correia was first called-up for the first team on 13 January 2021, in a Coppa Italia game against Genoa.[6] He made his senior debut on 2 May, coming off the bench for Juan Cuadrado in the 83rd minute in a 2–1 league win against Udinese.[7]
Loan to Parma
On 13 August 2021, Correia was loaned to Serie B side Parma with an option to buy.[8] On 12 September, Correia debutted for Parma in a 4–0 win against Pordenone.[9]
Loan to Marítimo
On 31 January 2023, Correia was loaned to Marítimo for the rest of the season.[10] Pablo Moreno was also playing for Marítimo at the time; Moreno and Correia were swapped for each other three years earlier.[11]
Marítimo finished the season in 16th place, leading them to face Estrela da Amadora (who had finished 3rd in the Liga Portugal 2) in the relegation play-off. After a 3–3 draw (aggregate score over two legs), the game went to a penalty shootout. Correia missed the decisive penalty and Marítimo was relegated to the second division for the first time in 38 years.[12]
Loan to Gil Vicente
On 22 August 2023, Correia returned to Portugal in another new season-long loan to a Primeira Liga club, this time Gil Vicente.[13]
